W.O.W. CLINIC +
Wellness and Outpatient Services on Wheels (W.O.W.) Clinic plus TB and Cardiac diseases awareness building and training for the community
THE PROBLEM
Cardiac diseases are the leading cause of mortality among Filipinos, accounting for 18.5% of all documented deaths related to non-communicable diseases. Meanwhile, tuberculosis (TB) continues to pose a significant threat as a major cause of death attributed to communicable diseases in the Philippines. The country has the unenviable distinction of having the highest TB rate in Asia, affecting 554 of every 100,000 Filipinos.
THE SOLUTION
This project, with its potential to transform lives, aims to deliver high-quality healthcare services to remote and underserved communities. We will provide affordable and easily accessible health assessments, tuberculosis and cardiac diseases screenings, and other medical ancillary services. The WOW Clinic features X-ray and ECG machines for early TB and cardiac diseases detection.
In addition to healthcare services, you will receive a community health awareness campaign and healthcare workers’ training on cardiac first responder skills and TB patient monitoring.
KEEPING CHILDREN HEALTHY
We recognize that the early years 0-4 are formative physical developmental years. WOW Clinic provides TB screening for children according to symptoms and exposure. Pediatric medical consultation and children’s vitamins and meds are available upon request. Dental extraction, minor surgeries like circumcision, height and weight measurements are also available for children at least three (3) years old.
